    I need help with out of control Quentin Tarantino-esque gangster characters!

    I would definitely deal with it out of game. Have a discussion and tell him what you don't like about his gaming. Inform him that he is taking the fun out of the game for the majority and the enjoyment of the majority will not be sacrificed for one person, no matter who they are. Nothing...

    Some newbie DM combat and miniatures questions...

    I agree. I came over to 3.x from 1E and hated AoO's. I didn't use minis for a long time. I tried to use custom rules and optional rules and anything and everything to fix it. Then, I went back and reread the entire section on combat. SLOWLY. REPEATEDLY. I decided to try it with minis by the...

    What shows got canceled before they had a chance....

    I just remembered another one. It was on Fox right after X-Files on Friday nights. It had Dan Aykroyd as narrator (IIRC) and was called something like Psi Ops. DM

    What Makes A Horror Campaign Scary?

    I remembered one more: In two campaigns I have run I have destroyed everything the PC's held dear. First example: This was not a horror campaign, but in the previous campaign, the players were just crunching numbers and not taking the game seriously, it was pure beer and pretzels (but without...

    What Makes A Horror Campaign Scary?

    Not only do you keep the room more dimly lit, also keep the in-game settings more dimly lit. Use fog, rain, mist, glare, snow, darkness, etc. to limit field of vision. Describe the age, weariness, and disrepair of buildings, streets, etc. Highlight soot, puddles, dripping sounds, rust...

    Ever had a Player Threaten you Like This?

    Your Gas Price

    Where are you in SC? I am in the Myrtle Beach area of South Carolina. On the way to Conway(just west of us), I saw a station at $2.559 with lines literally around the entire place and into the streets. About 45 minutes later, I saw the same station at $3.229 and the pumps surrounded by police...
